Bristol Bears take on Leicester Tiger at Ashton Gate Stadium on 27 February 2021
Leicester Tigers are the guests at Ashton Gate in the Gallagher Premiership on Saturday 27th February 2021 kicking off at 3pm.
It is likely that there could be a few match-ups between some of the Bears players when Wales take on England earlier on in the day. Bristol will be hoping to put away a Leicester Tigers side that have been struggling for form recently. The last meeting between the two sides resulted in a thumping 40-3 win for the Bears.
About Bristol Bears
Following a disappointing relegation to the Greene King Championship in the 2016/17 season, Bristol Rugby shone in the following campaign, securing their return to rugby's top division at the first time of asking.
Rebranded as the Bristol Bears and playing at a refurbished Ashton Gate Stadium, the side endured an up-and-down first season back in the top flight, finishing ninth before a fantastic 3rd place finish in the delayed 2019/20 season before succumbing to Wasps in the play offs semi final. The team will be looking to go at least one stage further in 2020/21 Gallagher Premiership and also look to reach the latter stages of the Heineken Champions Cup.
The Bears are pushing on under the stewardship of Head Coach Pat Lam, however, winning their first-ever European Challenge Cup at the tail end of the 2019/20 season.
